Mega Thread Non-Freo AFL Discussion

[oldgoat]

Shep is one of the good ones. I hope he gets through this.

You dont get thru this, it just gets worse.
What is a shame is that "the game" doesnt make the eradication of avoidable head injury the highest priority .
The "head is sacrosanct" chant of a couple of years ago is all but forgotten.
Head hits are judged on outcome not the action .
Need to judge the risk in the action and its avoidability.

 

[Tbonefreo]

I can't recall Sheppard having a series of concussions but im probably wrong.

Was the hit really bad? I can't recall the incident

 

[freo99]

Yeah nah Sheppard went for the ball and later admitted it should have been a free against him.

I think you are judging him unfairly.

Sheppard: I was in the wrong

Despite winning the free kick, Eagles defender Brad Sheppard has admitted he was in the wrong diving for the footy in an incident that has sidelined Fremantle’s Bailey Banfield.

The accidents only seem to go one way
Sheppard, Brander
Le Cras dropping Johnson with his forearm guard to the chest
Nic Nat breaking Sandilands ribs
Kennedy charging Chapmans shoulder after he came back on

You forgot Gaff. Accidentally punching brayshaw in the jaw

You forgot Gaff. Accidentally punching brayshaw in the jaw

"If you look closely, you can see that Brayshaw CLEARLY ducked into it."

That incident really bought out the nuffies.

Didn’t Sandi get accidentally elbowed in the nose…all the way up there

Nic Nat ran and jumped into him with his knee up + square to his body

Now that was a true snipe. A real disgusting act. Didn't even get suspended for it. Absolutely filthy with that one

Had his jaw broken by Seaby off the ball, but there wasn't any video footage, so nothing came of it.

RIP Percy Johnson who if I’m not mistaken did a bit of ruck coaching in a small capacity at Freo.

 

[WaywardSonSon]

I think the Weagles will lose their opening match. Bookmark it!

judge *the action? ... deliberate and dangerous!
*avoidability? Totally avoidable!
Sandi was moving back with the fight of the ball and unsighted.
Sandi forgave him...not me!
Duty of care.

at MCG today for Melbourne’s premiership celebrations. The club did a great job of honouring past players. Think the 2000 GF Squad was mostly there

collapses at training…
Anti Vaxxers: I told you! It’s here, the jab will affect all athletes.
Meanwhile, McCarthy collapses two pre seasons ago. Pavlich from memory passed out.

Sheppard retired - sad. As much as I hate the Eagles he was a very good player.

He was a Freo supporter too before he got drafted and brainwashed. Poor bloke.

 

[tonygeeks]

It was awesome when Shepard took a mark in the backline you could go have a piss , grab a beer , make some 2 minute noodles and be back before they finished chipping it around the backline

He was worse than Lee Spur as far as being a blackhole of attacking intent

Hopefully he got out in time , Fyfey is walking a fine line
